N-succinyltransferase
Overview
N-Succinyltransferase Encoded by a Cryptic Siderophore Biosynthesis Gene Cluster in Streptomyces Modifies Structurally Distinct Antibiotics.
The study identifies CsbC, an N-succinyltransferase from Streptomyces sp. strain YIM 121038, which modifies antibiotics like kanamycin and ampicillin, leading to reduced antibiotic activity. CsbC provides low-level resistance to these antibiotics in vivo.
